The website is claiming that Darkseid will be the big baddie of the film.

The New God was created by comics legend Jack Kirby in 1970 as part of his Fourth World saga. The villain is the leader of a planet of evil gods and searches for the 'Anti-Life Equation' that will allow him to subjugate all living beings in the universe.

He most recently served as the villain in the first arc of the rebooted New 52 Justice League last year.
